Hew done some good stuff for disadvantaged children. He's not a bad person and I think he's very likeable. Yes he's had a nothing season but not that it will happen but he'd be much more than a bench warmer at Villa

Anyway his skills have dwindled, he is finished and is not where we want to go. He be a sub here instead of a sub at City

He'd start every game here to be honest

I personally dont think these trophies he has won at city comes close to him feep doen to when he got promoted with us at villa.

You could see how much that meant to him and he was a massive part of that. All the stuff at city he has contributed to winning those trophies has been very minimal. 

He has been a flop for me and i still maintain that. Citeh should try cash in this summer as he might still have a couple seasons left to atrract other clubs. Cant see people paying the wages if they leave it to next summer and then he will just leave on a free 

Someone might. If he does leave on a free, it would be interesting to see which club he would choose if he had offers from say Villa, Manchester United, Chelsea and PSG. We would like to think that he would come back to us in a heartbeat, but I'm not sure that he would.

I think he absolutely would. Look at the problems we've had on our left side this season.

He'd slot right in.

I think our problems was because Ramsey was injured. I have seen enough from Ramsey/Rogers in that position than the current Grealish

He didn't start every game for us when he was actually here. 

He'd be injured for a third of the season.

I mean I didn’t literally mean every game. I meant he’d be “a starter”

Nah not for me. I think this is classic Villa fans “he’s left us so now he’s shit” stuff

Have seen him play, Villa Grealish is dead and will never play that way again. He is 29 and the dynamism he had isnt there anymore. Has become the most boring wide player in history

Or maybe people just dont rate him anymore?

Cant speak for everyone else but i agree with zatman this 2024 grealish dont get won't be a starter in a  full strength unai team. 

The 2021 does without question

He signed a six year deal in August 2021

He wouldn't get the helmans deal playing for villa though 😜

But seriously he wouldn't get the Gucci deal and he definitely wouldn't get the record breaking puma deal 

I think city cash in when their growth because of him peaks, not a clue if that's happened yet, maybe they wait and see what the euros brings, as it is I don't think he'll play that much, their judgement on him and the £100m will be based on metrics we will never see 

And I said this before the biggest problem city have with jack is the year later they signed a proper global shirt seller in haaland, I'm not sure they need him anymore because of that

Clearly people don’t rate him anymore. Did I say they otherwise?

I’m just saying I disagree and I think people try really hard to pretend he’s worse than he is because he left us. 
 

He hadn’t suddenly become a shit player in 3 seasons, one of which he was contributing heavily to a treble winning side

Hes been coached into being a more boring player and he hasn’t had as many minutes this season as he’d have expected. 
 

If he came back then im sure Emery would get the best out of him. 
 

I don’t think he will, but if he did he’d be starting no question

We already have a player in our squad that cost 100 million and was finished within 3 years of that transfer. He also got a couple of goals in a Champions League semi final

Coutinho was probably a better player than Grealish on his day

Every time I watch him play for City it reminds me of The Simpsons episode where Homer is given Mojo the helper monkey and gradually Homer (Pep) turns him into a useless monkey who has lost all his ability 

I mean those early England games , that flick v Belgium , dribbling out his own box , the whole country chanting his name and clambering for him to play 

now he's second choice to the headless chicken that is Doku , all be it he is a fast and pretty decent headless chicken tbf  , but he lacks Jack's intelligence on the ball and vision 

Oh well .. maybe West Ham will resurrect his career like they did Phillips  :D ..but if Emery can deprogramme him and get him back to the player that was one of the top 3 players in the premier league , then I'd have him back , but we look quite stacked down that left , so I can't see it even being a possibility

I agree with nearly all of that, bar the bit in Bold. You think he wouldn't start for us given current squad?
